Albrecht Dürer's House, Art museum and historic residence in Old Town, Nuremberg, Germany.

The five-story timber-frame house combines sandstone walls on the lower levels with a distinctive half-hip roof and multiple interior exhibition spaces.

Built in 1420, the residence served as Albrecht Dürer's home and workshop from 1509 to 1528, becoming Germany's first artist memorial site in 1828.

The museum exhibits period furnishings, displays works from Nuremberg's art collection, and demonstrates traditional printmaking techniques in a reconstructed workshop.

Regular guided tours commence at 2 PM on Saturdays in English, while printing demonstrations occur every Wednesday from 2 to 4 PM.

An actress portraying Agnes Dürer, the artist's wife, leads visitors through the residence while sharing details about life during the Renaissance period.
